Jack Abramoff's last email

Disgraced super-lobbyist says it's okay if nobody wants to visit him in jail.

November 16, 2006 |

Think Progress notes that the AP got ahold of Jack Abramoff's last email before heading off to prison.

In his final missive to friends and family, the disgraced Republican super-lobbyist stressed that it's okay if nobody comes to visit him:

In any event, please know that I certainly understand that visiting me would be a tremendous hardship and I would in no way be offended if people chose to wait until my release before getting together.
